DOI: 10.1038/s41398-020-00991-3
Abstract: The mechanisms underlying the role of oxytocin (OT) as a regulator of social behavior in mammals are only partly understood. Recently, it has been proposed that OT increases the salience of social stimuli. We carried… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41398-020-0830-x
Abstract: A key functional effect of intranasal oxytocin with potential therapeutic relevance for autism-spectrum disorder is its reported facilitation of attention towards social stimuli, notably the eye region of faces. In the current randomized placebo-controlled within-subject… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/02699931.2021.1935217
Abstract: ABSTRACT Socially anxious people have a malfunction in attentional systems. However, it is uncertain whether the malfunction of the attentional system is a domain-specific process to social stimuli or a domain-general process to non-social stimuli.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/1362361321998573
Abstract: Individuals with autism spectrum disorders typically exhibit reduced visual attention towards social stimuli relative to neurotypical individuals. Importantly, however, attention is not a static process, and it remains unclear how such effects may manifest over… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0265587
Abstract: Children typically prefer to attend to social stimuli (e.g. faces, smiles) over non-social stimuli (e.g. natural scene, household objects). This preference for social stimuli is believed to be an essential building block for later social… read more here.
